Lorelei and the Laser Eyes from developer Simogo and publisher Annapurna Interactive is still a strange and wonderous direction for Simogo’s post-Sayonara Wild Hearts success. The game still features a beautiful mixture of thick narrative and difficult puzzles that ask a lot of the player but deliver an equal amount of satisfaction by the end. While this won’t be every gamer’s cup of tea, it still delivers a variety of good moments that will keep those interested occupied for a while. It’s a challenging game that doesn’t pull its punches.

10 / 10.0 - Mindcop
Nov 30, 2024

I can’t recommend this game enough. I’m a sucker for good storytelling and mystery-solving. Though a bit short, Mindcop tells a captivating story with interesting characters and unique gameplay mechanics. If you’re the type of person who likes narrative video games and detective work, you will absolutely love Mindcop and its perfectly executed cartoonish noir aesthetic.

6.7 / 10.0 - Spirit Mancer
Nov 29, 2024

Despite the overstuffed quality of this ambitious package, it's hard not to admire the noble attempt Spirit Mancer makes to capture diverse genres and blend it into a game with whimsical pixel art and breezy combat.

Police Simulator: Patrol Officers from developer Aesir Interactive is a good game that delivers an accurate, though sometimes dull experience as a police officer. While the game could be a bit more exciting in some areas, the biggest issue with the gameplay is the hardware running it. The Nintendo Switch’s limitations in memory, graphics capabilities, and controls hamper what is otherwise a good game.

8 / 10.0 - Stray
Nov 20, 2024

The Nintendo Switch release of Stray from BlueTwelve Studio features the same great gameplay and challenging puzzles that were featured on prior console releases. While the Switch certainly takes a hit with its graphical limitations and far from comfortable controls, it is still a blast to play Stray at the end of the day.

La Grange and Fireshine Games have created a unique deckbuilder featuring a fresh froggy thematic in the form of Toads of the Bayou. It might need some additional deckbuilding design depth, but it has enough to hold players over for several roguelike runs.

Metaphor: ReFantazio continues Atlus' generational streak of stylish, remarkable JRPGs. Persona and Shin Megami Tensei fans will feel at home but this new fantasy world is gracefully transformative and rife with meaningful subtext.

While it is a short and hilarious retelling of Aloy’s adventures, the overall gameplay is repetitive in its level structure but still is very much a LEGO adventure at its core. A younger gaming audience might appreciate this more than an older one.

The release improves and tweaks elements of gameplay while maintaining the core structure that made the original release great. Add in a creative visual comprise between old and new school with a gorgeous soundtrack underneath, and you have yourself one of the better remakes in 2024.

It features deeply strategic fighting mechanics, a bevy of enemies to go up against, and a fun story to hold it together. The controls need some improving, and the dialogue could probably be toned down just a bit, but the game has more positives than negatives at the end of the day.

7.7 / 10.0 - Red Dead Redemption
Nov 12, 2024

It's nothing special to groundbreaking to write home on. There isn't any new story additions, but I do think it's a great game to pick up if you want to roam what is left of the untamed west while you still can.

Ultimately, it’s a stupid fun action game driven by gore, a well-acted story, and a thick amount of creativity that looks better and acts better than it did back in 2011.

8.3 / 10.0 - Metal Slug Tactics
Nov 9, 2024

Metal Slug Tactics is refreshing, leaning into its roots as a charming 90s arcade title while reinventing itself as a tactical RPG. You needn't be a Metal Slug fan to enjoy the amount of depth here – it's a treat of highly engaging gameplay and a must-listen of a soundtrack. I want more from Leikir Studio and sincerely hope they make the UI more user-friendly to ease the learning process.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 is the best entry in the long-running franchise since 2019's Modern Warfare reboot. While omni-directional movement is likely going to become the new gold standard, the true highlight is one of Call of Duty's best, most inventive campaigns ever.

7.7 / 10.0 - Decline's Drops
Nov 5, 2024

Decline’s Drops is a heavily stylized indie experience that takes standard platforming mechanics and combines it with its own unique vision. The atmosphere of this game is meticulously crafted to tell a melancholy story about environmentalism. If you’re a fan of platformers, I would recommend checking out Decline’s Drops, though be warned about potential frustration at the hands of imprecise controls. Overall, Decline’s Drops is a good game that can become truly great with a little more gameplay tweaking.

Shin Chan: Shiro and the Coal Town is a great mixture of adventure, multi-quest challenges, and somewhat open-world exploration. The game is a great primer for the young gamer in your household and will put their mental fortitude to the test while not pushing them too hard with impossible content.

Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered from developers Guerilla Games and Nixxes is a worthy update from the 2017 game. The update brings many visual enhancements, improves environments, and creates better character interactions. It brings a great game up to PlayStation 5 standards and helps bridge the gap between the original and the sequel.

8.5 / 10.0 - Fear The Spotlight
Oct 28, 2024

Fear the Spotlight from developer Cozy Game Pals and publisher Blumhouse Games is a frightfully fun romp that balances out puzzles and stealth inside of a horror experience. While it won’t redefine the horror genre in gaming with its narrative, it still delivers enough to be entertaining and scary.

Life is Strange: Double Exposure retains the focus present in True Colors while bringing back the supernatural mystery angle of Max Caulfield's inaugural adventure. Deck Nine again proves it is a worthy caretaker of this dense, narrative series.
